This patch series adds the necessary parts so that a tcg guest is able to use
kvm facilities. That is a tcg guest can boot its own kvm guests.
The main requirements for this were a few registers and instructions as well as
some hcalls and the addition of partition scoped translation in the radix mmu
emulation.
This can be used to boot a kvm guest under a pseries tcg guest:
Use power9_v2.2 cpu and add -machine cap-nested-hv=on for the first guest.
Then inside that guest boot a kvm guest as normal.
This takes advantage of the new hcalls with qemu emulating them as a normal
hypervisor would on a real machine.
This can also be used to boot a kvm guest under a powernv tcg guest:
Use any power9 cpu type.
This takes advantage of the new hv register access added.
Note that for powernv there is no xive interrupt excalation for KVM which means
that while the guest will boot, it won't receive any interrupts.
